I love how these scientists are taking the time to explain what they are doing. I don’t understand a lot of the science, but two times stronger than the sun, and faster than the blink of an eye is catchy. How are cool are they and lucky are we. This is what they do every day. Fckn incredible! Ty

A Russian war and oil crisis and suddenly a breakthrough in nuclear fusion!! Someone's been holding technology advancement back.

me in the uk staring at my electricity bill

Amazing! This and the new space race are the only things that have made me feel like I live in something closer to the future that was dreamt of more than 100 years ago in science fiction.

Would've taken 20 seconds for someone to pick that flag up

[nathanjholder]

someone should of picked up the usa flag

[patrickday]

One small step for man one giant leap for mankind!

Our minds have taken us from drawing our hands in a cave to creating stars on earth, I will remember this day not only for the amazing scientific achievement but for what we as humans can achieve.

Converting 300MJ of Electricity into 2MJ of Lazer energy to produce 3.15MJ of Heat and calling it a "net energy gain" without explaing it like this is basically fraud, in business "net" means including your expenditure.

Big Oils will put an end to this effort. They are counting on Trump to come back and put a stop on all these clean energy projects.

It isn’t about reality but practicality that will matter most. If they can create a reactor that can run on fusion it will be a bigger breakthrough. What they describe in the video isn’t something we can use yet. It’s a first step but we’re still a long way off from a practical application of fusion energy.

Aaaaah the old nuclear fusion, yea I had that all worked out on a rainy afternoon.

[sssssnake]

What the hell are we going to do with iter now

[sergiobayona]

This 30 year knowledge is locked in with a small group of people. Is the goal to share this so it benefits the most amount of people? Or is this just going to benefit a few privileged ones?

[roiagam]

Abondance is the way to eliminate war, and basically all forms of violence.

[georgwalt]

99 saudi arabia ads in 5 mins during this video, they feel threatened as they should be

[JeighNeither]

I'm glad they fixed that flag situation asap, or the conservatives would have had a field day over their "disrespect of America" 🙄

[laurahaaima]

Cool.. the name Zylstra has its origins in Friesland a dutch province

[ericcsn]

We are at step1 of another steps and about another million years to achieving zero emission energy source

[Jimjon]

There is a freaking fusion reactor in the sky outputting 29.4MJ per square metre. We have all we need.


That'll do pig.
